@gloomy coral in the tutorials I saw they didn’t say to do that
Do i just click on Installed?
I suck at modding
yeah click the orange box it should update it
But it's needed
@gloomy coral ok i will install those then
Ok
How do I install mod common and modding api on Mac
Sorry I’m really bad at this
do you have modinstaller2?
Just scroll down and click the box next to install
On mod installer?
correct
oh you're using modinstaller 1?
It says mod installer2???
can you screenshot the application?
It’s on my laptop and I don’t have discord on my laptpop but I will take a photo
Is this a good enough photo?
ok so scroll through the list until you see "Modding API"
That’s at the top
click "installed?", then once that displays as ticked make sure "Enabled?" next to it is ticked
that's fine
Ok
now enable modcommon and the mods you'd like
Whenever I click enable the mod installer crashes
Clicking instal is fine but enable crashes it
try waiting for a bit after clicking install, it takes a little bit to download
not really, shouldn't take more than 30s max if you wanna be safe
Ok
do you have to download custom knight skins or do you start with them on mod installer?
you have to download the skins separately
im trying to install the DecorationMaster mod for the impossible%, but whenever I open up the game after installing it, it says "failed to load, check modlog.txt" and it seems like its failing to find something, anyone know how I can fix this?
Ive tried with other mods installed and it alone (+ modding api)
though almost definitely not the source of the issue, for impossible any% you will need QoL, Vasi and DebugMod too
?saves

Windows File Paths: (Assumes Default Steam Install Path, Adjust accordingly for DRM Free or Non-Standard Steam Path)
Game Files: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\``` ** ** Mac File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Team Cherry.Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/hollow_knight.app/``` ** ** Linux File Paths: ```Save Files: ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/Hollow Knight/ Game Files: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Hollow Knight/```
in your saves folder, find DecorationMaster.GlobalSettings.json and open it. you need to ensure "agreeLicense" is set to true, and that "CreateMode" is set to false.
have you added the map yet?
Yup
(strange, i'm actually getting the same issue on my previously working install 🥴 )
Steamdb says it got an update 2 days ago, something may have changed there?
Which version is the decoration master mod?
most recent one under releases on github
0.4?
Maybe the map was made on a different version and that's why it isn't working?
I'm not sure tho
i doubt its to do with the map itself. The list of mods says "DecorationMaster: Failed To load!" when i open the game soooo
Yeah that usually means you have a conflicting mod or you're missing a dependency
Check these
i have those 3
What mods do you have. A list, please.
It isn't showing Vasi, but it is installed in ModManager
that screenshot is using an older version of DecoMaster but same thing shows on newest version
Did you download decoration master twice
ive tried two different versions, but have made sure to uninstall the one im not using each time
hi, im trying to play mods on hollow knight on mac. ive tried downloading a modinstaller for mac but it isnt working. does anyone have anything that would allow me to play mods on mac? thx
did you download mod installer 1 or 2?
@tawdry junco download this one
ok ill give it a go
seems to be working 🙂
it seems to have worked
thank you soo much
sit at a bench
i have one problem that keeps happening. whenever i click on enable on a mod in the modinstaller thingy with all the mods, it crashes. any way to stop that???
ive been trouble shooting for a few mins
I did already - but the menu didn't pop up
dont click on enable, just use install to select the mods you want and uninstall them when you dont want them anymore
does the mod show up on the top left of the main menu screen?
oh you just click install. i just reopened hollow knight and the mods are there. quickly, to turn off a mod do you just hit uninstall?
i hope so
thanks for the help
i really appriciate it
how do you disable a mod?
you can't from the installer. its better if you uninstall it
oh ok thank you sooo much. you have been so helpful
ah yeas, it does. But how to access it? Is it with a mouse click?
I am using gamepad
deleting the said mod entry in managed/mods does it?
with mod installer you dont need to do it manually (which is the whole point of it)
i think it is with mouse clicks
hoo no wonder I can't do anything - I thought it's using my gamepad
thanks @gloomy coral !!!
anw, anyone here uses the hollowpoint mod? it's seems interseting for new play
yea its fun
Is this a good place to ask for help with randomizer logic? I don't know how to get to massive moss charger without air stalling/movement upgrades.
@sacred barn You can get there with a shade skip
(You die in the acid in the room to the right of MMC, and then pogo your shade to get to the transition)
Thanks totally forgot shade pogo
It's in logic if and only if you have shade skips activated
BTW #randomizer is a good place to ask logic questions (you need ?rank randomizer racer or ?rank speedrun racer to type in there though, the first gets pinged fairly often)
?rank randomizer racer
@sacred barn, you joined Randomizer Racer.
Thanks for the help Flib. 🙂
Hi! the bonfire mod really works
but I dfound out that it conflicts the UI with custom knight
cant change the skin due to the UI
my bad
Hi, it's not important question but what is "SereCore" in the modinstaller ? When i open modinstaller, the program install automatically this mod and i can't delete this... Why ?
its a dependancy for other mods
okay but i have all my mods in the disable folder...
if you dont want serecore then delete the mod that requires it
is anyone interested in helping to develop a tas tool?
okay i'm stupid.. thanks Mulhima for your help
i need help installing ImpossibleAny%. Yesterday it worked, today it worked, i just installed QoL and even deinstalled it after it didnt work and now it does not. it says to check the ModLog.txt but i dont get mutch information out of that
do you have 2 decorationmaster's installed or something
sorry, there's 2 modmanager ehre
1 and 2 for the windows
which one I should use?
there's one from 2019
(oinned)
there's one from 2020 too
Which operating system do you have?
Either will work
Click the orange button
What is the name of the super popular custom knight skin
where the cloak turns white
and the knight gets bonus horns
try pure vessel, maybe that's what you want
Excuse me, can someone send me the photos of the hornet texture pack? I can't download them for some reason
If you mean twp’s pure vessel, it hasn’t been released publicly or in a challenge. There is the other pure vessel that has less sprites that grenade mentioned though
What happens when you try to download them
It says that the download failed
What browser are you using
Can you screenshot it saying this
I don't know how
Let me see
"You cannot download the thing (I don't know how to say it in english) To be able to do that try activating third party cookies for drive"
So I did that
And it doesn't work
Screenshot what you are downloading
I tried it with many, and it says the same. It's the drive with most of the texture packs, I found it in fireb0rn's vid
Oh nvm
In microsoft edge for some reason I can
All things change but the knight spritesheet and sprint spritesheet
but Hollow point doesn't work - it keeps overriding the chosen custom skin in my experience
thanks @wheat orchid !!!
So I have decoration master mod. When I load in the game its meant to create a folder called DecorationMasterData. That folder is meant to contain a notepad called global.json and when I load up the game it created the folder but not the file inside. Do you know what's going wrong?
Ping me in a reply of you think you have the solution
I wanted to play hollow knight multiplayer. I searched a tutorial and followed it step by step but it isn't working
make sure host connects to himself before client attempts
how can i check that it does?
ok, It doesn't work.
Restart the game when trying that
ok, nothing
Are u using hamachi
yes
i don't know, i think that i did
Okay...
Join the multiplayer hollow knight discord server
The guy who made it is on there
They will know more than me by far
i don't have the link
Gimme a sec
where do i find that?
Did you mean pale king?
Not anymore :( miss jngo
Though I have made updates to it and own the server
ok, problem solved
Well done
other problem, i don't do damage with the nail to my friend. do i have to install another mod to do that?
I asked this already but I wanna ask again incase someone knows what to do and didn't see my message. I have decoration master mod. When I load in the game its meant to create a folder called DecorationMasterData. That folder is meant to contain a notepad called global.json and when I load up the game it created the folder but not the file inside. Do you know what's going wrong?
No
Enable pvp
The host has to turn on pvp
done. i do only contact damage but the nail does nothing
Hmmm
Restart the mod maybe?
Have them re enable it
Maybe it's lag
Probably
Both of the players stand in one place for like 5 seconds and then hit and see
nothing, when i hit i only get pushed back
Try restarting
ok
Does anyone know what to do
If it's pale king use this file to download @boreal vapor
Nah its decoration master mod
nothing. the nail does no damage
I am having the same problem with decoration master mod and the global.json file. I've seen some people recently on this channel saying that the mod says "failed to load" on the main menu and I also have exactly the same . I wonder if this is a recent thing
What other mods are on
only common mod, multiplayer client and multiplayer server
It failed to load is something that should be told before that file didn’t appear
Is modcommon on
What charms are on
no charms
Idk
ok, i'm moving but my friend doesn't see me moving, same for my friend
ModCommon was a good guess, it used to be installed but after I reset things it wasn't. I reset everything again and it still doesn't work with modcommon, some people above were asking the people with problems if they had two installations of decoration master, but just like them I don't, I don't know why it shows up twice, I'd removed every installation I had before, trying doing it just after deleting the Local ModInstaller folder too

ModLog says "System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary" after trying to Load the Global Json, I'm wonder if anyone gives me that file it could work?
here is the full file anyway
¯_(ツ)_/¯
That might be the problem, idk. I think it would make more sense to use the ModdingApi’s built in settings though
someone knows i can fix this?
Watch Fireb0rn’s tutorial on it and join the multiplayer discord
There’s a faq section for fixing issues
im having the same issue as WaffleMelons xd
Same
Are there any mods that do actual savestates? the debug mode set respawn doesn't work if you leave the room, or maybe I just don't understand how to use it. I have given up and just wanna put a save at the late benches of PoH
it doesn't help.
all i can think of as "save states" would be placing benches with benchwarp
I don't think I can warp the the pantheon benches, cause they don't actually save
maybe with debug dreamgate?
shit, am I using an old version?
I got it through the loader
hmm
let me see then
I will report back, thank you
looks good. thank you @west bane
game is very fucky with storage glitches
don't load a save state unless youre like on the ground standing still, almost everything else might break the save state lmao
for anyone confused about decortion master. the moddingAPI is not working as it is upadfted and the mod is basically broken
I can't seem to activate cheats with debug mod and my stats in bonfire mod saved so now my main playthrough is basically ruined
you can download 112% saves from speedrun.com/hollowknight/resources
I'm having this problem where i can heal with this much soul, I thought maybe a mod was causing it so i removed all of them. Does anyone know what might be going on
What is the name of the randomizer mod
randomizer3
did you benchwarp or something
whats that
one of the pre-requisites for randomizer lol
click the revert to unmodded buton ont he installer
or just verify integrity of game files on steam
Thanks
dunno what mods you had installed so
I have the problem with decoration master, the load failed... Just before, the game launched decoration master normally
new api breaks it
how to resolve this problem ?
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data\Managed go here drop this file there
does charm overhaul and easymod stack?
do they both make changes to charms, if so, probably not
It's work !! thanks @west bane
easymode changes charms?
nvm, i just couldnt read
It reduces cost by 1 notch
What are decoration master's dependency mods?
Because it fails to load when I launch it and usually it's because Imm missing a dependency
What changed with Seanpr Core with the last mod installer update? Do I need another mod for randomizer now?
Debug mod
SereCore is a replacement for SeanprCore. If you were previously using SeanprCore, you can delete it and install SereCore instead.
Oooooo
ok, thats what i thought, thank you
It automatically corrects dependency paths, so it should not cause any issues.
Hey I'm trying to play impossible any%, but it's not loading. I checked ModLog and it says:
[ERROR]:[API] - Error: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.
Along with a couple other errors. Are there any dependencies I'm forgetting? All I have enabled is Decoration Master and Debug Mode. Perhaps an outdated version?
I'm on Decoration Master v1.8.2.
@mental prairie and @glossy surge, if you're still having trouble with the DecorationMaster mod try the fix that Zaliant mentioned just a little bit above with the Assemble-CSharp.dll file
where do i download mod installer?
i've already download mod installer
grimm look at relyea's vid on youtube
yes but the problem is i don't haev the same things as him
on the description of the video
for both of your questions,
you just run the installer and, click install on the mods you want.
the modinstaller can be found in the channels description, along with the pins for other versions.
ok thx
Hollow Point keeps showing up as "out of date", do i just have to keep updating it until it doesnt show up like that or what
That's a bug, ignore it
Ignore it
it doesnt show up in the game either
like in the top left corner where i see my mods it's simply not there
I installed Lightbriner and Hollow Point, and I'm trying to play a completely new save with hollow point only, but there's lightbringer crap in the game for some reason, like the opening dialogue, and my nail being called a "firenail", which is actually weaker, too, which is another feature of lightbringer. How do I stop these features from coming up? And yes, lightbringer is not turned on.
i even uninstalled custom knight and g to dab because maybe it was doing something with the hollow point mode
also it says I have like 999999 geo which tbh is funnier than annoying to me
rn im starting a new save to see if it was just a visual glitch
Down install both at the same time
never uninstall g to dab.
Install one and uninstall the other
They both affect charms and attack
Thanks.
correct
If it doesn't show up on the top left of main menu it probs won't work
aw
Check the setting of the game there will be a tab called mods
See if it's off over there
it would still show up in the left tho
My modinstaller keeps saying "Unable to download mod list", despite the fact that I already reinstalled it multiple times. What might be causing this?
If it's off over there it won't show
What OS and which mod installer?
ah it was just off thanks
No, Windows 7. It worked fine before I updated it.
There was an issue with DecorationMaster (fixed now), so I tried to reinstall it and that's when I started getting the error.
If your having trouble with modinstaller you can download it manually
Yeah, I already installed everything I needed manually, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this
It could be a firewall issue
How does the multiplayer mod work?
True, but it's not like I changed anything about my PC after my last installation of the modloader, and I didn't have any issues with it in the past.
If this helps, I'm also getting a "The request was aborted: Couldn't create SSL/TLS secure channel" message. I tried to fiddle with my firewall settings, but nothing seems to change.
yo how do i get floral fury cuphead thing to actually work
i downloaded the indie crossover thing but when i try to fight this one specifically i cant move at the start until i get hit and then its just very weird the knight sprites get frozen in place and it just feels very laggy
and if i use a spell i cant move again
and ye the animations for the knight dont happen he just stays still and changes sprites depending on the action but just one still image per action really weird
is it an incompatibility w another mod or what ?
Im pretty sure the mod that does this is GrimmChild Upgrades
...do you have any game files open?
just hollow knight open thats prob why im pretty dumb
Thanks @west bane I was having the same issue with decoration master yesterday ❤️
So I've asked this before and you helped me fix the problem but it's happening again. One of the mods broke my healing. How do I fix it?
Save edit
Look at hollow point’s readme
hum guys i've got a question about debug mod
if you had the QoL Mod already installed:
- go to save files
- locate
userX.json(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
if you don't have the QoL Mod: - https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/
- go to save files
- locate
userX.dat(with X being the save slot number from 1 - 4) - upload that to the website
- ctrl+f "focusMP_amount"
- set the value to 33
- download encrypted (PC)
- rename it to the original name (will be downloaded as
user1.dat, rename if you want slot 2, 3 or 4 to be edited) - put it back to the save file folder
Hi there!

(if you need to know what it does, open it in something like notepad, the lines with REM are comments for those below)
how i modify the map of hk?
?
I can think of about 3 things you mean by that
modify like the hallow nest path of pain mod

whats the mod name for AIKG 
Me and a friend are trying to d a multiplayer game, but it doesn't seem to be working. Any ideas?
We are currently connected via Hamachi, and we put in the ip of my Hamachi computer, but it's not working
how do you use the custom knight mod. i cant seem to be able to get the readme thingy?
u need to download skins and than put them in the 'mod' file
once your done, close your hk, open a save, and press pause. near topleft there will be skins, click on the name of the one you want.
ah ok thx
click on default if you want your original skin btw
ok
now i go back to AIKG
there seems to be a small glitch when using the custom knight mod with the randomizer mods, or one of them I'm not sure which, where once you change your skin, geo turns invisible. anyone heard of this or have a workaround at all? not a big thing obviously, just curious.
Yes
Copy the Geo file from default into the skin that is missing Geo
It's just custom Knight

can someone help me? i am on pc but downloaded HK on pc using the xbox app. where do i go to find my stuff to mod?
even though the issue persists when going back to default skin?
I'm not sure why that would happen, but this fixed it for me.
You cannot, sadly. You can only mod the steam or good old games version
Yes
dangit
Yeah, blame Microsoft. 😔
ok ty. I will let you know if it worked! hope it does. 
i am not able to equip the ak47
read the readme for hollow point
it worked! tysm. :)
I'm pretty sure that Seanprcore automatically removed when SereCore ran, fwiw. I'm not sure if that was intentional or not, but I was planning on leaving both in, and when I launched HK, it "failed to load" Seanprcore, and the next time I ran it I noticed it didn't have that issue, and upon looking in my mods folder, the .dll was no longer there ¯_(ツ)_/¯
serecore completely replaces seanrcore, that is correct
i was uninformed, now i am informed that serecore is smarter than me

can i have some help
i cant mod my cracked hollow knight
(i have hollow knight for switch in a different country)
i left my switch in my other home
so can anyone pls help me with modding this?
you can't mod cracked hollow knight
if you want to mod the game, you have to buy a legitimate PC copy off Steam or GoG
I installed decorations mod, ran the game, closed it, and placed the impossible any% json files into the DecorationMasterData folder, but nothing has changed when I launch the game and make a new save
can you screenshot your title screen?
why is decorationmaster broken 
.
yall help, i cant launch hollow knight without the mod loader launching and loading, with no mods loaded its broken the healing so i can heal 5-6 times on a regular tank of soul and i just feel like playing the vanila game...
Which mod did you download?
did you use ModInstaller to install the mods?
ye
but then i turend them off
and did you use Hollow Point?
hollow point modifies your save file if you load it
oo0o
so i loaded it on one file, does it change the a file that i never loaded it on?
it would not change that file, no. This is the process to undo the changes on the modified profile
give this person a medal!
🏅 @ sf
when I try to open ModInstaller it tries to download it, says it's successfully installed, but then tries to download it again and repeats, and I have used it before and it worked
I need help with hollow point
what do you mean by "it"?
this
before asking here, make sure you've read the Hollow Point readme and check whether it already answers your question 
The thing is is just keeps loop updting
It keeps saying it needs to update
So I cant get into the launcher
does this have anything to do with it? and if so how do I fix it
where is your installer
on my desktop
I tried both running as admin and uninstalling then reinstalling, but it's still looping the download
Hello, how can I make custom levels for Hollow knight so I can make something similar to the impossible mod
and now resetting also didn't work
look a fireborn's tutorial
oh ok thanks
shame though
well just gonna say...
praise the sun!
I have, it didn’t help
What are you confused with
Everything
We’re you able to follow any steps fire explained?
Somewhat
Then where specifically are you confused
oh and if anyone can somehow help me mod cracked hollow knight id be happy to hear what they will say
Mostly turning on create mode, editing and creating anywhere on the map, and “exporting” the map for pepole to play
What are you doing to turn on create mode
I cant fond the file
Did you run the game with decoration master once?
Ye but I had other mods on
Did it say failed to load at the top left
At first yes but I realoded the modding api and it didn’t say failed
Someone else will come
I ‘m reinstalling modding api and it keeps on downloading, finishing then downloading again
so now we both have this problem
yo
I just have a little problem and it might be me not doing it properly, but I put the files into the customknight file and extracted them too, and it shows the names but when I click on them nothing happens
I've been trying to figure it out for a while
do your character folders lead directly to the image files? (and not to another file)
elaborate?
sorry im a little bit dumb when it comes to these things lmao
sorry I meant folder not file
if you have the character folder -> some other folder, then it won't load the skin
I can explain the process that I did
I downloaded CK with the mod installer, then downloaded the zip files of the skins I wanted
and then I dragged them into the CK file in the mod folder and extracted them
so from what I know everything Is in the rightful place
can you post the path to one of the image files?
alr
G'day all, I broke my mod manager somehow.
A few mates and I were doing multiworld stuff, when I went to quit out, it came up with something along the lines of "Fatal error in gc" and then closed the game
After that, it doesn't show any mods in the top left corner when the game is open, and won't load any of my saves (Just says "Loading" on all of them.) If I revert back to unmodded, it will load the saves. Breaks again when I go to modded. So far, I've tried a hard reset, and reinstalling the modinstaller. Any ideas?
and what's inside one of the folders?
let me check
Just delete the mods folder
in the top one there's the sprites and a few other things like Knight.png.meta, knightremix.png.meta, README and Sprint.png.meta
and in little hornet there's two zip files which I'm not sure I should touch or not
the two in the middle are just sprites
and your path looks like this right?
let me check
mine is steam, steamapps, common, hollow knight, hollow knight data, managed, mods, customknight, and then customknight demon
so yeah
then it's probably either something in the mod wasn't installed correctly or the zip files stopped it from working
ah
I uninstalled it and tried it again but it still didn't work so it might be the other folders impacting it? like the zip files and the notepads
but I don't know if the zip files actually break anything, still worth a shot
want me to extract the zip files in little hornet and see?
go for it
Yes
did it
let's see if it works
this has been happening to me too
not sure why, as it was working fine yesterday
Ye
deleting the mods folder does indeed work
how long did you wait after clicking?
The most common problems for custom knight not working are:
1. Modding API and/or Mod Common not downloaded
2. Skins not put in the folder properly. It is supposed to be is: Managed → Mods → Custom Knight → folder(with skin name) → the PNG files. If there are more folders in between this then it will not work. It has to only be Custom Knight → Folder → PNG Files
3. Not waiting long enough in the pause menu after pressing on the skin
check these 3 things
I'll try most of them then
it might be MODDING API
but ill check
is MODDING API with mod installer?
or is it a separate download
I extracted them both lol
and I have a readme
of the API but I can't find the thing itself
did you leave the folders in the little hornet packs folder?
mhm
You have the hornet one?
because they shouldn't be in there
ohh
Yea
You have to dig in and get only the skin
took them out of the folder and deleted the folder
should I delete the readme and all that stuff in the other folder?
and keep the sprites
Yea keep only the PNG files
So can you show the folders
on it
Show the custom knight folder and open each skin and show
There aren't any more folders between the PNG files and the custom knight folder?
These look fine open the game and check
nope
don't work still
can you screenshot the main menu screen
on it
Then what are the other folders?
screenshot the upper part so we can see the path
You should change the names to something more clear then, I think
oh dam
Lightbringer has a custom skin
should I uninstall it? t doesnt even work for me
It probably doesn't work cuz of other mods
A lot of those like Lightbringer can't work with each other
Yeah, exactly
time to uninstall most other mods I have other than customknight then
gonna start all the way from the bottom
alr then 
Also, again, change the skin folder names to something easily recognizable
if you want to play with it then dont disable it. i dont think it interferes with custom knight
Until the skin loads
Could take 10-15 secs
If it doesn't work try without black moth
got it
if it doesn't work I'll disable blacksmith
blackmoth
fuck
did it with and without blackmoth, its still fucked smh
I have nailartbuff and moddingapi and thats like all
Try uninstalling the mods instead of disabling them
mhm
Not to intrude on your conversation, but does anyone know how/where user input is captured?
Kinda important
I usually read most of them
Aight, so just make sure none of them edit save files
Hey all, any idea what might be causing mods to not show up at all?
When the mods are active in the installer, and in the same folder they were in when it was working, I can open the game, but it won't show any mods up the top left. There's also no loading bar like there normally is with mods on. None of my saves are there and I can't start a new game. All it says for the slots is "Loading"
When the mods are inactive on the manager, the game will load the saves and I'm able to play.
uninstalled most of them, waiting to see if the skin works now
other than inf notches, nailartbuff, blackmoth and benchwarp
What mods are you trying @uneven arrow?
Did you make sure you have all the dependencies, etc.?
try going to your saves folder and deleting ModdingApi.GlobalSettings.json and ModdingApi.GlobalSettings.json.bak
Also try Jamie's more technical solution 
Haha cheers, I'll give it a go. I was doing multiworld stuff with mates and had it all running well
@wide glade what would cause them to be, uh, wrong, in the first place?
Weren't you gonna try custom knight without blackmoth?
Just uninstall everything except API and custom knight
on it
Custom knight is not working for me. Please help.
can you give us more details?
@wide glade that worked, thank you so much yet again
Whenever I select a skin It hides all of the skin names and nothing happens
The most common problems for custom knight not working are:
1. Modding API and/or Mod Common not installed/enabled
2. Skins not put in the folder properly. It is supposed to be is: Managed → Mods → Custom Knight → folder(with skin name) → the PNG files. If there are more folders in between this then it will not work. It has to only be Custom Knight → Folder → PNG Files
3. Not waiting long enough in the pause menu after pressing on the skin
check these 3
same issue as me ayyy
Yeah
welcome to the club 😈 😈
Close friend of mine and I are trying to use the multiplayer mod stuff. We're using Hamachi and we're uncertain what the issue is as we've followed every tutorial we've seen exactly. Its just most of them dont focus on the hosting side.
that means the skin is loading. try waiting 10-15 secs
I have
Could anyone help us out?
can you show where the png files (of the skin) are?
what other mods do you have?
modding api?
oh shit should I have modcommon too?
yes
read this
Oh mod common was not enabled
Generally, it's best to keep modcommon always installed and enabled
Yeah
Bravo 
nvm we got the multiplayer working
Wanna try my special new HUD @novel bronze?
Mulhi no spoilers
for?
For some reason my Modding API (WinRAR ZIP Archive) is not functioning
When i boot up the ModInstaller it just tries to download the modding api and fails
creating a 0 KB archive that says it's damaged
It was working fine yesterday
try this
I'll try that
If by resetting it you mean getting rid of the mod stuff from my Hollow Knight folder, then yes
And running the modinstaller as admin didn't help
.
oh
Wait, the thing worked this time
...for some reason
i tried this before and it didn't help
I have a question, so today I verified the integrity of my hollow knight files with mods enabled and now my bench warp mod is broken, can anyone help?
by verifying integrity of files you remove the mods iirc
so you have to download modding api and mod common (and other dependencies of bench warp)
i know, I re enabled the mods and bench warp shows up in my pause menu, put when I press any buttons my screen goes black
I've been looking for a mod on the mod installer that lets me summon in any enemy I want (e.g. summon an aspid in greenpath). I've tried the debug mod but that just lets me clone already existing enemies. Are there any mods out there that can let me do that?
Hey guys , im new here . I joined this Discord to ask for help if anyone has the Knight sprites Framed into single images like this guy did
It looks like he used this https://github.com/magegihk/HollowKnight.GODump
The .zip here sounds like it's what you want?
#modding-discussion message
Also yes, GODump is what is used. You can use it to get all of the game sprites.
Hello, could someone help me install the mod "InfiniteHatchling"? I don't know what to do with the files here
What even is that mod meant to do?
Anyways can you explain what files you're showing? @devout scarab
Try to install it using the mod installer
It's in the pined messages of this channel
It appears you have downloaded the source files rather than the mod itself
Wait where did they get those anyways
Maybe the GitHub page
i downloaded hollowpoint mod put when i still have the ammo thing full it wont shoot
What charms do you have equipped?
well i readed it but it doesnt say much about charms
Some special charms are capable of giving you an entirely different gun with its own properties. These guns are capable of changing your currently class. You may only carry one of these conversion kits, equipping more than one will prevent you from firing. You can also transfer the current class by a specific charm, that allows you for example, to use an SMG with the Observer abilities, if you equip the Observer transfer charm. Note however equipping more than one of these will set you back to the gun's original class.
oh so i dont need to equip alot of charms?
you can but you can't equip more than 1 charm that gives a different gun (which can be found out by reading the charm description ingame)
So, where do I "select a path" for the mod installer?
which OS are you in?
uh...windows?

so, I wanna download the Scarlet Knight mod.
how would one do that xd
is it a skin?
yes
from modinstaller download custom knight and make sure that modding api and mod common are downloaded
I've been looking for a mod on the mod installer that lets me summon in any enemy I want (e.g. summon an aspid in greenpath). I've tried the debug mod but that just lets me clone already existing enemies. Are there any mods out there that can let me do that?
this should be my last question. The Mod installer came with a bunch of mods already. Where is a place I could actually check out what those do without installing them (and learning what they do like keybinds and stuff)
when i open my downpatched hollow knight i get an error message that there has to be a hollow knight data folder next to the exe, even though i have that folder, what can i do?
thanks!
hey, does multiplayer mod require hamaci?
check pins for google doc of mod summaries
oh, preesh
i need help with hollow point. how do i switch to gun?
press focus key
thanks
and how do i shoot
i press the binded attack key(mine is right click) and it shoots once
it maybe only shoots once cuz you dont have soul(ammo)
right now i have full soul
and for some reason it doesnt use ammo nor shoot bullet
it just does shoot animation
i noticed in benchwarp there was a bench called ||beasts den||, and idk where it is. same thing with one called ||kings pass.|| i asked in #hk-help but no one answered
maybe ask here....?
so i did
You can unlock all benches and just warp to them to find where they are
help me with hollow point?
Hollow Point has very specific new rules. Read the readme and read the description for any charms you might have.
(I assume none at this point)

Should be near the game files
i entered game files
i found everything
except the README
idk why but ii look at modinstaller2
and it says hollow point is out of date
why?
That's just a bug, ignore it
ok
still not found readme in game files
why
also notice it got installed
but i cant find it
Just look around the files in those file paths
Mauve try the saves path just in case it's there instead
i found a readme in save files
but its the enemy health bar one
only found hollow point change log
but still no readme
screenshot the folder
you nee dto go 3 folders back
Ok but I have to go now
@novel bronze i had the same bug, you just need to reopen the modinstaller and it will tell you that the mod is outdated, you click update and then it works
Does anyone know what the Royal Dreamer mod is?

What about the Godly Nightmares Mod? It's not in that.
for some reasons it doestn show up
uhh
idk
when i open it it tells me that its outdated
maybe go download it manually
basically the version you have is bugged
so it doesnt work
you need to install the lastest version
wdym
from the beginning or at vengeful spirit?
did you read the readme
beginning
also does the multiplayer mod from modinstaller work?
cuz it says alpha pre release
so i went 3 folders back but i cant find readme
Hollow Knight< Hollow-knight-data<Managed<Mods
i think i understand now? in the github it says i need to reload with adrenaline right?
it reloads faster if you use adrenaline but it reloads automatically slower
ok but i dont understand what button should i press to fire
attack lol
i have full soul(ammo)
are you starting a new save with the mod enabled or something
hm yes i just started with the mod
the readme says not to
i had the same issue
ok i reopened the game now the gun works
i dont know use hamachi i think?
i saw tutorial use hamachi
but i never tried multiplayer still
what is hamachi
host connects to IP before client
Yes. Either do lan, a vpn such as hamachi, or port forwarding(not preferred since it requires access to your router’s settings and uses your real ip)
the host connects to the IP that you put in before the other person connecting does
Also I suggest going to the multiplayer discord server as there are instructions there on getting this to work
It’s in the description of Fireb0rn’s multiplayer help video
where is the mod installer?
Windows, Mac, or Linux?
windows
Didn’t you just say you found it?
i fond tank you
🤔
hey guys the MasterDecoration mod fails to load, what i can do?
Huh, why does it need a modded assembly C sharp
because it somehow doesn't work with newest one
it's something with json, idk what it would change though
i need to install the C sharp as a mod right?
No
It’s a older version of the ModdingApi
So put it in the managed folder(the folder the mods folder is in)
in managed or mods folder?
Do I put the new assembly c sharp in the mod folder and replace the old one
Or do I keep them both @wheat orchid
ah, i see
Replace the old one, kinda the point of using the old one
just don't open the modinstaller afterwards
as it will just replace it again with the newest modding api, which won't work with deco master
Kk
ok now is working thanks 😄
gog, yes
steam, no
so if im on steam i have to be careful right?
yes, though you don't really accidentally get achievements unless you go out trying to get them in HK
gog also grants achievements with mods, they just don't get displayed
im asking bc i was going to try mods on pantheons and on special speedrun playtrought
guess ill have to do modless first...
that would give you those steam achievements
you can always just use SAM to take them away
what is SAM?
manager
how do i access it?
should be the first result on google
why would someone ban you for removing achivements?
you will not receive a vac ban
so what exactly am I meant to do to get a skin mod working?
check pins for a vid tutorial
thank you
Every time I start my game up my map pins and shade marker get sent to one point on the map (the right side of fungal wastes if it makes any difference). I was wondering if this was a mod malfunctioning? I have CharmOverhaul, NailArtBuff, QoL, and Unofficial Hollow Knight Patch
that's the modding api
I did everything in that good video tutorial, but after loading custom skins (this isn't a problem since I only just downloaded HK onto my computer instead of waht I used to play on) the menu has no music, and I can't start a game. Anyone know what the problem is?
I can no longer find my shade so I have to aimlessly walk around royal waters until I find it
Nah, problem with the ModdingApi
is there a fix?
No
Go to your save files path and delete all files with ModdingApi in their name
